The West End Festival Fiesta came to a close last night and it was the best one yet.

Sure, Billy Ocean and De La Soul were both great, but Sister Sledge were nothing short of sensational and gave a masterclass in how to move a crowd.

Being set outdoors at the Bandstand, the weather was an important factor in how much fun folk were going to have and although it had stayed dry all weekend, by Sunday evening the rain was pretty relentless.

Fortunately though, the Sub Club's Harri and Domenic were on hand to ensure spirits weren't dampened, cranking out a set of jacking house and disco that had the full 2000-strong crowd dancing in the rain.

With a hyped-up audience ready and up for it, Sister Sledge had an open goal in front of them and they didn't miss, rattling through one massive track after another from the off.

They opened with the glorious funk of World, Rise & Shine, which mixed straight into Everybody Dance causing absolute mayhem in the crowd. All American Girls and Frankie followed without even a break, just one relentless mix, before they took it down a level with the sultry Reach Your Peak.

Their mastery in crowd interaction showed on the incredible He's The Greatest Dancer, where they plucked three girls from the crowd to bust some moves and lead both the band and the fans with whatever they came up with. It could have been a disaster, but all three were immense and with the band dropping in blasts of Beyoncé and Michael Jackson, it was a real moment.

Another moment was the fan who sang Amazing Grace with them, a random again, but she turned out to have a truly stunning voice and was nearly drowned out by the cheers of approval from the crowd.

Good Times was stretched out into a sprawling funk workout, with the girls dropping in blasts of The Sugarhill Gang's The Message, while Lost In Music was just sublime, pitched huge and soaring, teased out with band intros and solos, all adding to its huge groove before it crashed back in with one final, massive chorus.

They closed with - what else - We Are Family. Taking it like an old-school soul revue, Sister Sledge and their amazing band worked it for all its worth, leaving the stage and coming back, getting the crowd to join in, changing the lyrics to 'Glasgow family'; they pulled out all the stops to ensure it was the greatest possible finale and it worked brilliantly.

Not just the best show of the Fiesta then - Sister Sledge gave one of the best shows Glasgow will see this year, and it was absolutely sensational from start to finish.
